  9. The Architecture Behind A One-Person Tech Startup

    I’m trying to come to terms with how this “simple” setup makes me feel anxious and overwhelmed just reading about it. So many things. (via @simonw)

    Some lovely reduction lino prints, without too much of the tweeness that a lot of nature prints have.

    Only just come across this subreddit. Been going since April 2020. Ethical investing often gets dismissed in other investing places, so interesting to have this.

  17. Swim Smooth vs. Total Immersion : Swimming

    I re-learned swimming years ago from the TI book alone, and haven’t thought to read much about it since. So this (9-year-old) critique is fascinating, and makes complete sense to me.

  18. “THE ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES WITH CRYPTOART WILL BE SOLVED SOON, RIGHT?” | Medium

    To summarise: No.

  24. Following

    Chris Aldrich’s (very long) blogroll. I like the idea of offering an OPML version of it.

    Creating a more realistic typewriter font. But I don’t understand why the movies mentioned didn’t use a real typewriter. And don’t get me started on “handwriting” fonts. (via Michael Thai)

    Free for personal use. Looking forward to fantasy remodelling.

  28. Why Generation X will save the web - Hi, I’m Heather Burns

    “But when you create content on the internet, you have to imagine it being consumed in four dimensions, front to back, but also out of order, and also without whatever greater context it was created in.”
